Verdict

BRIGHT LEGEND is still to get his head in front in this sphere but rates the clear form pick and will benefit from this drop back in trip too so gets the nod. In-form maiden St Cuthbert's Cave is next on the list ahead of Saint Le Fort, Our Soldier and Promontory who can fight it out for minor honours.

  1. BRIGHT LEGEND (IRE)
  2. ST CUTHBERT'S CAVE (IRE)
  3. SAINT LE FORT (FR)
